# Custom MySQL Backup

## Description

This project serves as a personal extension of the remarkable [Databacker's MySQL Backup](https://github.com/databacker/mysql-backup) software. It primarily incorporates additional libraries into the container, enabling the use of popular CLI resources like [curl](https://curl.se/) and [jq](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/). The inclusion of these libraries aims to enhance the [Pre- and Post- Processing](https://github.com/databacker/mysql-backup#backup-pre-and-post-processing) features provided in the original project.
